It not only provides you with predefined floor plans, it offers the abililty for you can to print templates.

I used the templates to build a model of the house I designed. It helped me make changes to my design seeing it in miniture.

Remember - The more basic the plan the least expensive

If you have several levels within the stories of your design, this will cause more expense

Try to find floor plans where the Kitchen and bathrooms are in the same area, even if they are on different floors. Hot and cold water take miles of pipes, and we know that home building supplies are going up in price. If you can shorten that run it will save you money

Several roof lines also will add to the price of your new home.

The least expensive way to add square footage is with a basement

I used Microsoft Excel to do the initial lfloor plans. See the electrical /plumbing tab for an example of my Excel docments.
